Shavon was excellent. She was very friendly and made you feel welcome. She was the best part of our stay! Thank you, Shavon! The gentleman and other woman at front desk were also nice. I asked to move rooms because the shower was draining slow, and she. Immediately said sure. The beds are very comfortable.

The beds were soft. Slept great. Their breakfast was excellent. We booked the room for 2 nights, could not get clean towels for the 2nd day. Kureg Coffee maker in the room looked like it had never been cleaned so we could not use that. Mold was in the refrigerator. A couple of the staff working were rude.

The worst Holiday Inn I have ever stayed in. The bed was horrible, mold In the bathroom, and many other issues. We felt very unsafe there. We tried to call Hotels.com for assistance to find another hotel, good luck with that! Last time I will use them.

The parking was pretty well spaced out, the breakfast was pretty decent but very necessary for our busy trip. The beds left to be desired though. Ours were the mattress stacked together with a sheet or cushion to hold them up onto the frame.

The staff were great, the walls and floors are kind of thin so you can hear people stomping around or noise from outside. The complimentary hot breakfast was helpful before having a long work day too. Overall the location was convenient because everything we needed was within less than a fifteen min drive.

I booked a room through Expedia and the hotel was overbooked and turned me away when I arrived. The staff told me the property manager had called or messaged be to let me know that my reservation was cancelled but I never received any communication regarding me not having a room.

This hotel was horrible the bed had a big stain on the box spring, the breakfast was overcooked, and the shower either was really cold or way too hot there was no in-between, and on the day we checked out the cold water went out completely, which is not ideal when you have children that need showers, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Filthy stained sheets and a bloodstain on the pillow. The area is awful and we didn't feel safe. The woman at the front desk was lovely and helpful.
